That sounds like Hollywood to me and Solomon might have been
born in Canada, but in his heart he's all Hollywood...or Big
Entertainment if you'd rather. I'm sure you'll get your check 
just as soon as SweetPea's accountants say that that property 
made any money...probably tied to that movie deal that never 
got made, and even then...

Ninty-six year old Jack Klugman is still suing the production
company for the very popular, long running, still in 
syndication all over the world Quincy trying to get the money 
he is owed...but they say that Quincy is still millions and 
millions in the red. Yeah, right! Creative Bookkeeping at its 
worst!

Same thing has happened to countless other actors, writers,
musicians and artists that deal with Big Entertainment.

Ob Trav: You know the MegaCorps are just as big a sharks and
heaven help anybody that expects fair play from them.
